Nevada-based Dot AI, an IoT and AI-based SaaS company, has announced a three-year partnership with Israeli firm Wiliot, a specialist in ambient IoT technology.

Under the agreement, Wiliot will support Dot AI as it focuses on developing and deploying industrial and manufacturing applications, extending ambient IoT deeper into factories, warehouses and complex logistics networks. Wiliot will also supply the company with tags and cloud services for resale.

As part of the collaboration, Dot AI has validated and is commercialising the first true industrial implementation of the Wiliot tag technology, coupling its chip with a patent-pending plasmonic folded ground plane structure that increases readability and range when mounted on-metal or in wet environments. Dot Ai has also released a patent-pending rugged industrial bridge that can read this tag as well as other Wiliot enabled labels.

These innovations expand the range of industrial use cases where this technology can be applied, from high-value retail supply chain tracking to production-line applications, full-warehouse inventory automation, metal skids, shipping containers and outdoor laydown yards.

With these developments, in-process ambient IoT data collection has been added as a data stream in the Dot AI ecosystem. Together with other legacy data collection systems, Dot AI continues to enhance its ability to deliver in-process asset visibility across complex facilities, unlocking asset intelligence and AI empowered workflows.

“This partnership solidifies our commitment to extend the power of ambient IoT into the heart of industrial asset intelligence,” said Ed Nabrotzky, CEO of Dot AI. “By developing industrial components to interface with Wiliot’s technology, we are able to collect additional data in our target environments to deliver the continuous, in-process intelligence that complex supply chains demand.”

By harnessing the power of real-time IoT tracking technology and AI-enhanced analytics, Dot AI (daic.ai) offers patented products. Through research and development, it has engineered a suite of technologies that help organisations streamline their logistics and supply chain processes, and bolster operational security. Leveraging AI engines, 5G RF and BLE technology, and seamless API integrations, Dot AI offers real-time asset visibility and predictive analytics that integrate with existing infrastructure.

Wiliot (wiliot.com), a pioneer of ambient IoT, powers supply chain with continuous, scan-free visibility into item location and condition. Its platform processes signals from battery-free Bluetooth sensors (IoT Pixels) in the Wiliot Cloud using purpose-built AI and ML models. This enables real-time automated condition monitoring, inventory intelligence and workflow optimisation.
